The New American by
A former U.S. attorney says that the prosecutor in the election case in Fulton County, Georgia, against former President Donald Trump and his aides must recuse herself.
Appointed by President Barack Obama, Michael Moore told CNN that prosecutor Fani Willis blew the case when she hired her married boyfriend as a special prosecutor, an allegation that appears in a court filing from Trump aide Michael Roman. He has asked the court to dismiss the case and disqualify Willis from any more involvement. Willis’ beau, Nathan Wade, the filing alleges, has bilked the taxpayers with ridiculous legal fees.
Though the filing comes only from one defendant in the case filed against Trump and 18 other defendants, the revelations could bring down the whole thing.
Wade's expense reports also note Nov. 2022 “interview with DC/White House.”
Trump allies claim it's evidence of Wade meeting w/ Biden White House …
But White House visitor logs from Nov. 2022 do NOT contain any entries for Nathan Wade, per CNN review: https://t.co/gTtCg4Ens1

Roman is a defendant in Georgia’s case that accuses Trump and his aides of myriad felonies when he tried to uncover voter fraud. One charge alleges that Trump and his aides trespassed the state’s Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations (RICO) law.
To help prosecute the case, Willis, a Trump-hating fanatical leftist, hired three special prosecutors.
Roman’s two key allegations are that Willis did not have the authority to appoint special prosecutors, and that the lead prosecutor, Wade, is Willis’ main squeeze, and that’s the only reason she hired him.
“The entire prosecution is invalid and unconstitutional because the Fulton County district attorney never had legal authority to appoint the special prosecutor, who assisted in obtaining both grand jury indictments,” the filing argues. Willis did not seek permission from Fulton County to hire the prosecutors, which poisons the case. As well, the grand jury in the case did not recommend charges against Roman.
But those seem like minor quibbles compared to the filing’s other allegations. Although Wade has no experience prosecuting a RICO case, Willis still hired Wade, a married man with whom she is involved romantically…
